Code Readability and PEP 8  Always aim for clean and readable code by following PEP 8 guidelines.  Use meaningful variable names, avoid excessively long lines (stick to 79 characters), and organize imports properly. 2. Use List Comprehensions List comprehensions are concise and often faster than regular for-loops. Example: squares = [x**2 for x in range(10)] instead of creating an empty list and appending each square value. 3. Take Advantage of Python’s Built-in Libraries  Libraries like itertools, collections, math, and datetime provide powerful functions and data structures that can simplify your code.   For example, collections.Counter can quickly count elements in a list, and itertools.chain can flatten nested lists. 4. Use enumerate Instead of Range     When you need both the index ...

6 Exclusive Differences Between Structured and Unstructured data

Here's a basic interview question for Big data engineers. Why it's basic means many Bachelor degrees now offering courses on Big data, as a beginner, understanding of data is a little tricky. So interviewers stress this point. Don't worry, I made it simplified. So you get a clear concept. I share here a total of six differences between these. In today's world, we have a lot of data. That data is the unstructured format.   Structured Data The major data format is text, which can be string or numeric. The date is also supported. The data model is fixed before inserting the data. Data is stored in the form of a table, making it easy to search. Not easy to scale. Version is maintained as a column in the table. Transaction management and concurrency are easy to support. Unstructured data The data format can be anything from text to images, audio to videos. The data model cannot be fixed since the nature of the data can change. Consider a tweet message that could be text foll...
